During the Nazi regime, Sam Offen suffered slave labor, ghetto confinement and concentration camp horror. More than 50 members of his immediate and extended family were killed.

He has shared his experiences with groups at schools, events and the Holocaust Memorial Center in Farmington Hills, Michigan. After much urging by friends and family, Sam has put his story in writing. (This is the hard cover edition of his book.)
